At Bellevue Children’s Academy, our students’ growth is strengthened by the close-knit community that surrounds them. In small classes guided by IB-inspired teaching, children are known, challenged, and supported through engaging academics, enriching activities, and a caring, multicultural environment. 

On this page, parents and students share their own experiences – highlighting the relationships, support, and learning that make our school feel like the right fit. Read what they have to say about one of the best private schools in Washington State.
